Dropship.

It's due on 18th January according to SR, and having played the demos I must have it!

I had to renew my membership, too - and claimed an inflatable chair as my free gift... I'm looking forward to getting that too!

Anyway, if Dropship interests you, don't forget to pre-order!

The loading times put me off Dropship. Don't get me wrong, the game's fantastic, but with the incrdibly long loading times and the small amount of missions I think I'll pass.

Erm... don't forget they were demos - pre-release, unfinished code etc.

The demos for Driver on PS1 had very, very long load times, but these were drastically cut in the final version.

I know it's only the demo and I expect them to be cut in the finished game....but it still put me off.

If I could i'd be pre-ordering a ton of games right now, unfortunately my gaming buys are dictated by the income from my job, which... isn't anywhere near enough.

Still, i'll be doing my very best to have enough to pre-order both MGS2 and MoH as soon as possible.

I've just preordered MGS2, but not through SR... Here's why:

MGS2:

Gameplay.com = £37.99 incl. Delivery
EB = £42.99 + Delivery
Amazon = £34.99 + Del (£37.13)
Special Reserve = £36.99 + Del for non members
Play.com = £34.99 incl Delivery

Guess who I went with?
